The study focuses on the impact of tooth loss on alveolar bone, which shrinks significantly within the first three months. To prevent this, strategies like alveolar ridge preservation are used. Autogenous dentin, taken from the patient, supports healing and bone regrowth. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), made from the patient's blood, enhances healing and bone density by releasing growth factors. A new technique combining L-PRF with albumin creates a stable healing membrane that provides a steady release of growth factors. Overall, these methods improve recovery after tooth extractions and prepare sites for future dental work.
